To add resources you need to copy from Ceylon.xs and paste the part of 275 XP to your file before RMS "0.99" or RMS "1.00".

Then you can copy the effect trigger and make it Food, Gold, Wood, Trade (that is Export), Ships (individual Shipments) or XP and put the total to 20000 of each, for instance.

That adds to your map resources and units.

Then if you want to add trading route posts you put socket, after Vector=Socket 0.10.

If you place it 0.50 it will go half way through the route, 0.40, four tenths way, and 0.65 six tenths and a half way.

Making your own map you have to add your own description with the = sign and id remove so that you can place your custom text in the .xml file.

Then your on your way to creating and copying a map.

Changing terrain is not hard but you have to be consistent with each terrain type and the time each one comes on the map, for instance <0.5 up to <0.8 makes it appear 79.9% of the time, rather than 49.9% of the time.

Making your own map you need to include RMS "0.01" and RMS "1.00" for the loading bar to move.
